New Delhi: Union Health Minister and BJP President JP Nadda has sharply reacted to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s controversial statement where he claimed that Congress was now fighting the “BJP, the RSS, and the Indian state itself.” Nadda accused the Congress party of revealing its “ugly truth” through Gandhi’s remarks.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Nadda said, “Hidden no more, Congress’ ugly truth now stands exposed by their own leader. I ‘compliment’ Mr. Rahul Gandhi for saying clearly what the nation knows—that he is fighting the Indian state!”
Nadda further alleged that Gandhi and his “ecosystem” have close ties with urban naxals and the “deep state” who, according to him, are working to defame and discredit India. He said, “It is not a secret that Mr. Gandhi and his ecosystem have close links with Urban Naxals and the Deep State who want to defame, demean, and discredit India. His repeated actions have also strengthened this belief. Everything he has done or said has been in the direction of breaking India and dividing our society.”
The BJP’s response was swift and pointed, with Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri adding, “Tell him to go get his mental stability checked.”
BJP Spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla also weighed in on the issue, claiming that Congress and Rahul Gandhi’s actions were no longer just opposition to the BJP and Prime Minister Modi but an opposition to India itself. Poonawalla said, “Today, Congress party and Rahul Gandhi have made it clear that while opposing BJP and PM Modi, they have started opposing the nation. They are fighting against India and the Indian state. It is not a coincidence but a well-thought experiment. It has become an industry, sponsored by Soros (George Soros). Rahul Gandhi follows the agenda of ‘Bharat Todo’.”
